2017 Map of Dennis Mountain

About this map

Nez Perce National Forest and Bitterroot National Forest converge in this high-elevation Idaho County landscape, where the drainage of Sabe Cr dominates the central topography. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent ridges and peaks, including Dennis Mtn and Harrington Mtn, which serve as significant landmarks for those navigating the backcountry. Numerous named creeks, such as Hamilton Cr and Big Squaw Cr, carve through the deep drainages between Smith Ridge and Corey Ridge. The absence of roads or permanent settlements emphasizes the primitive state of this wilderness area. Researchers and outdoorsmen can trace important geographic transitions at points like Harrington Saddle and Buck Creek Saddle, while remote water sources like Cabin Spring provide vital points of interest for historical land use studies.
